Having just graduated college, where I studied politics, history, and women's and gender studies, much of this history I knew or knew of through my studies. What is presented in this book is a well synthesized survey of suffrage and feminism in the United States. Quinn doesn't sugarcoat historical figures or paint them as saints, but rather takes the time to point out their flaws and where they were wrong (see: Alice Paul not wanting black women to march in her suffrage parade). Quinn also does a great job of spotlighting many different voices and women from completely different socioeconomic and professional backgrounds. There were a few times I wondered "oh, I hope she'll mention or discuss X" and it would always be on the next page! Quinn's language is accessible throughout, making this a great read for teens and young adults, but also adult readers wanting to celebrate the successes of women in the US.

In addition to the narrative, the book is also full of gorgeous art by women artists. Each piece was beautiful and it was always exciting to turn the page and wonder what art would be next.

This book concluded wonderfully, and it was exactly what I needed. I imagine it will be what other readers need as well. I'm really looking forward to see others reading this book!

This book is a beautifully illustrated and empowering book of the history of women's right to vote. It is a must- read that is told in fun-to=read prose for all ages and genders to know our history and write the present and future. I recommend this as a gift to any friend-- or a gift for oneself.

I have read many books on women's suffrage during this year leading up to the 100th anniversary. I think that this book does a really nice job of laying out the history, warts and all, bringing women of color into the conversation more, and looking at the history of women's rights after the suffrage movement. I think that it would pair really nicely with Amazons, Abolitionists, and Activists: A Graphic History of Women's Fight for Their Rights. At times the language is a bit too conversational or repetitive, but--especially for teen and tween readers--this book is a good, fun survey of the complicated history of the suffrage movement.
